I see hcs/cursor is able to change and override the cursor. Will have a look at it...

I'm yet to better understand how setting cursor works, and I'm also thinking how to expanding this to iemguis, so they can also be resized in edit mode...
Ok, I see now this is taken care in canvas_doclick, which can set the cursor to "resize" in some cases. Things seem to be clearer now to me.
But I also see now that it's all quite hard coded into Pd and impossible to expand it to externals. A GUI external could benefit from setting another cursor, such as "bottom_side" for a custom dropmenu button, or "plus" to tell you that you can add a segment into an envelope generator, etc.
Using the *canvas_setcursor* function into a *w_clickfn* call doesn't work to override the cursor. I can't think of a simple solution like I did by suggesting a new "edit" message in my last email. Nonetheless, I think this would be a nice feature that it's worth discussing.
cheers
